Gustavianum - Uppsala University Museum Uppsala: walk and solve

Sherlock Holmes murder mystery in Uppsala includes Gustavianum after Carolina Rediviva and Upplands Museum, then continues towards Linnaeus garden in walking order. The detective activity starts at Stadshuset. These places provide a real setting for the fictional case, connecting your museum search with a broader outing on foot.

At the museum stop, give the actual surroundings attention before turning back to the investigation. Your group can enjoy seeing where it arrives while still having a common task to continue with afterwards. The route supplies destinations, while the murder mystery gives you something to discuss between them. Both the real places and your companions’ ideas can contribute to the experience you share through Uppsala.

Secrets of Uppsala asks you to hunt for King Gustav Vasa’s lost laurel wreath in a fictional search. Its route includes Gunilla Bell, Carolina Rediviva and Gustav II Adolf Obelisk. Choose it if that premise appeals more to your group than investigating a detective murder case during a city walk.

The activities use different phone setups. Secrets of Uppsala runs in the browser on your own phone with no app, while the detective game uses the free Loquiz app. Decide which story suits your teammates before beginning and follow its own route. If Gustavianum is central to your plans, the detective outing is the game that includes it. Friends, couples or colleagues can choose a task they want to share.

Both games cost €19.95 per team, take 1.5 to 2 hours and allow at most 4 players sharing one phone. Starting is flexible every day, and the purchase stays valid for 12 months. Choose a playing time that gives the activity enough room within your group’s Uppsala plans.

Keep independent sightseeing visits separate from the game duration. Agree on the phone you will share and make sure everyone can follow its information through reading and discussion. Each teammate can contribute an interpretation without holding a separate device. Your chosen story provides the focus, while the actual surroundings and your group’s conversation help make the time between destinations part of an experience you are doing together on foot.
